Black Flag 229 (2009)

Issue 229 saw a widening out of content for the magazine, with both internal looks at issues of interest to the anarchist movement and analysis of events in the wider world, including the headline article on the aftermath of the Grek riots at the end of 2008 and over the economic crisis gripping the world.

The link to this issue, under 'For other issues...' of other BFs, isn't working. It seems to direct to a blank library dead end. I accessed this page through a search.

Thanks, I'll hopefully be overhauling the links are the bottom soon to just go from "Current" to "previous" and "next" anyway I think, avoids having to list all of them on every page.

Rob, I would worry about doing those links in a new way, we can just set up a book page for black flags which will automatically put them in order, like we do with Resistance and Catalyst, etc

Just to say this is now done, here:
http://libcom.org/library/black-flag

to add new issues go to that page and click "add child page". If there are any other old issues of black flag here I haven't found, you can put them into that book via the outline tab, or the book outline section when you edit it.
